Altered Friday Christmas Giving

It's Debbie Naylor's week at the Sisters in Stamping (http://SistersinStamping.blogspot.com) and she has picked gifts to give-- regular things that have been altered in some way, here is my project--


It is a giant clothes pin! I stamped the snowman on shimmery white cardstock, the technique for him is called Out of the Box. I altered the pin with some Designer Series Paper called Just Add Cake.  


Here it is clipped together. I made a couple extra to give away this Christmas for the Grandmas. I hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving!

Happy Stamping, Karla c(:

Christmas Tags to Share

Welcome! The Sisters in Stamping (http://sistersinstamping.blogspot.com) are creating gift tags to help you for the Holiday Season!
Here is my project for this week--

 I used one of the plastic stamp boxes. It holds 9 tags, 3 of each design. The stamp set I used to make the tags is called Christmas Lodge (Holiday Mini Catalog, pg.29). There is Designer Series Paper that matches the stamp set and I used some of it to decorate the box.
Here is a picture of it open--

I took close up pictures of each of the tags--


I know I always say thank-you for coming by--but I really mean it! Words can not tell you how happy I am when I see the little counter tick away with new visitors every week. Next week the Sisters are putting together some gift ideas, hope you can make it back!

Happy Stamping,

Thanksgiving Turkey Favor

Welcome to another Fabulous Friday! We are all putting together some Thanksgiving Decor together for you this week at the Sisters in Stamping blog (http://SistersinStamping.blogspot.com). Here is my little Turkey place setting favor--


My family and I have been invited to spend Thanksgiving at a friends house, I'll be making these to set at each of the place settings. I used some Spice Cake Designer Series Paper (Holiday Mini catalog) to make a pouch. I've filled it with chocolate and candy corn and used some punch art to decorate it.  

Thank-you for coming by my blog today! Make sure you check out the Sisters in Stamping blog for some other great Holiday Decorating ideas.

Happy Stamping, Karla c(:

Felt for Fabulous Friday

The Sisters in Stamping (http://SistersinStamping.blogspot.com) are posting Christmas projects for Fabulous Friday....I made a stocking ornament for my Christmas tree--

I used the Holiday Stocking die (item #124098) and the Stocking Accents (item#124099) die from the Holiday Mini Catalog (pg.24). I ran 2 pieces of oatmeal colored felt through the BigShot using the Holiday Stocking die. For the holly I used the iron on adhesive and then did a blanket stitch around the edge. Before I sewed it shut I stuffed it, sewed the ribbon on and made it a hanger with gold cord. It was pretty simple, I think it turned out really cute!

Happy Stamping!
